Spanish language Q&A Forum

I was recently given this sentence: 

Eugenia (entender)  ______ que no podamos ir.

I got it correct and know the form of "entender" to be used, but I have a side question: Why is "podamos" in the subjunctive here? Why not the indicative?

I'm sorry, but I believe this to be a misleading question. "Le encanta jugando con sus hijos." = "She loves playing with her children." She loves to play with her children", would be "Le encanta jugar con sus hijos." I feel like I'm being penalized for speaking too much Spanish.

when do we use aumentar vs ir en aumento?

when do we use 'en' + noun pattern? or rather when do we use 'ir`? is it a grammar pattern where 'ir' + ' en' + noun?

El problema habría sido resuelto en dos minutos por mí.

The correct answer was "…por mí en dos minutos."

Thanks. K

Hi,

I did a search on your site to find out the above, but there were not results.

Do you have a lesson/guidelines on how to form adjectives from country names?

In the quiz there were names of countries and I couldn't tell how to form the plural adjective.

Thank you, Nicole

The question is:

No ________ papeles al suelo.
You must not throw papers on the floor.
HINT: Choose the correct passive form.

The four possible answers are:

se puede tirar
se puedes tirar
te puede tirar
se pueden tirar

The correct answer given is se pueden tirar. Should it not be:-....   “No se deben tirar papeles al suelo”
